Gaterose blacked out my headlights

I know you now have a custom front bumper, but do you (or [MENTION=50591]gaterose[/MENTION]) have any details on how you blacked out your fogs? Mainly now you removed the fog light assembly.

They're very easy to remove. I think the easiest way is with the headlights removed, but it could probably be done from underneath as well. There are 2 two bolts holding each side on (so 4 total), the fog & signal come out as a pair that is clipped together. You unplug, unclip em, remove the bulbs, follow the same procedure for BHLM (200* for 8-10 minute, paint, rebake, seal) then reverse.

Me and [MENTION=50591]gaterose[/MENTION] changed our guages to LEDs i had trouble with mine but matt as always saved the day and fixed it for me.



Taken apart


Finished product just have to get the rest of the LEDs for everything else

What is the led bulb number for the gauge? I'm thinking about doing this mod.

To be honest man im not sure, [MENTION=50591]gaterose[/MENTION] was ordering his and he just asked me if i wanted to do mine too so im sure he could give you a better idea.

 

[gaterose]

I got em from superbrightleds, can't remember the number just that they're SMD LEDs and don't have bases like NEO3/3s

Wreck/New Front Bumper

So on August 1, a Penske moving truck backed into my rig and bent my bumper and led mounts. So after 2 months and a lot of annoying phone calls with the guys insurance, she is fixed and ready to go.

Of the wreck:

New Bumper:



Main difference is i added winch access holes and made the fog light holes square for the pods

Does your buddy do bumpers for just anyone? A bumper like this would be worth a drive!

What are your bumper and sliders covered with? Are they line-x'd or just a type of bedliner? Cause I really like the look the texture brings off
